Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Dubai to Plaisance. The landing approach into Mauritius on the right side delivers the most dramatic and sustained scenery — the island's volcanic peaks, reef-enclosed lagoon, and sugarcane landscape all come together in a single view. The Dubai departure on the left is impressive but brief. For the full flight, right side passengers also get better views of the Maldives atolls passing to the right side of the route in the mid-Indian Ocean.

During takeoff from Dubai International (DXB), sit on the Left side for the best views. DXB's primary departure runway 30L/30R sends aircraft northwest before turning south, putting the left side over central Dubai — the Creek, Deira, and the downtown skyline including Burj Khalifa are clearly visible on the left as the aircraft banks south. The right side faces the desert hinterland and industrial zones. Notable sights include: Dubai Creek and Deira district, Burj Khalifa and Downtown Dubai skyline, Palm Jumeirah (visible as aircraft climbs and turns south), Dubai Marina towers.

When landing at Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International (MRU), sit on the Right side for the best views. MRU's primary landing approach is from the northeast on runway 14, meaning the aircraft tracks southwest over the ocean before touching down. The right side faces northwest toward the island's volcanic interior — the Black River Gorges highlands, Piton de la Petite Rivière Noire, and the patchwork of sugarcane fields are on the right. The left side faces southeast over open Indian Ocean. Notable sights include: Piton de la Petite Rivière Noire (Mauritius's highest peak at 828m), Black River Gorges National Park highlands, sugarcane field patchwork of the central plateau, Mahébourg lagoon and barrier reef on the southeast coast.

The flight from Dubai International (DXB) to Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International (MRU) takes Approximately 5 hours 30 minutes to 6 hours.

The route tracks southeast from Dubai across the Arabian Sea, passing over or near the western coast of India (Gujarat/Mumbai region visible on clear days), then out over the open Indian Ocean. The Maldives atolls — their characteristic ring-shaped coral formations and turquoise lagoons — pass to the right (west) of the flight path roughly at the midpoint. The final third of the flight crosses featureless open Indian Ocean before the volcanic peaks of Réunion and Mauritius appear on the horizon.
